spacers are as safe as your OEM studs and lug nuts.

That's good to hear! I love the M sport wheels, hope to find a set someday. Joker, you running 245s all around? To imagine rotating tires on the G would be awesome, even if the staggered look is lost.

I would agree with that when it comes to the "slip on" type where you use the original lugs or change to extended lugs.

Now the ones that bolt to your old lugs and then have different lugs for the wheels......

I don't know.

Those are the exact same ones that I bought. No problems at all from them!

And all 4 wheels are 8.5 or are they 8s up front and 8.5s in back? I'd be tempted to go all 4 the same were the wheels all the same. For an extra 20-30mm in rear, that's different...

I paid $750 shipped for mine without tires. Most times $1000 is a good price for them, like DarkG said the range seems to vary greatly on them you just have to wait for a good deal.

Agreed, if you got them for 1400 with decent rubber on them that would be pretty good. Condition can make a big difference too, of course.

condition changes the price..


mint wheels with no rash for 1400 with tires is good, but I would wait for a slightly used set with tires.
